I&#8217;ve created a new Twitter account- <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/BrickhouseMTB\" target=\"_blank\">@BrickhouseMTB<\/a> (I&#8217;ll be phasing out the AndreaMemphis account). I&#8217;ve also created a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Brickhouse-Racing\/316488225039618?ref=tn_tnmn\" target=\"_blank\">Brickhouse Racing<\/a> fan page on Facebook. It&#8217;ll mostly be photos and links to new posts, so I promise that if you subscribe to it, you won&#8217;t get a bunch of annoying &#8220;OMG, here&#8217;s pictures of my food!&#8221; type posts that you might see if you actually were my friend. If you&#8217;ve ever wanted to find me on Facebook, but didn&#8217;t want to put off that &#8220;stalker&#8221; vibe because we&#8217;ve never really met, then this is the place for you.<\/p>\n<p>What I&#8217;m hoping for now is that you, my loyal and wonderful blog readers, help me out by re-tweeting, re-posting, sending invites, etc. so that I can get more followers. More readers\/followers = more blog traffic = more visibility to my sponsors = more sponsorship = bigger and bad-asser races = better, more exciting stories for you to read on my blog. See? It&#8217;s really all about you and your desire to see me in my &#8220;hey y&#8217;all, watch this!&#8221; adventures in bike racing. So, share away!<\/p>\n<p>P.S. Once my webmaster is back in town from a weeklong trip up North for business\/holidays, I&#8217;ll have some sort of fancy buttons that&#8217;ll make everything a little simpler.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In an effort to drum up a little more traffic to the all-powerful blog, I&#8217;m experimenting with a couple of &#8220;social media&#8221; outlets.
